    About this audiobook

    ‘A beautifully written, incredibly evocative tale. The Memories of Us will remind you that love never fails and that there's real power in chasing your dreams. I loved this uniquely vivid story, and you will too’ Kelly Rimmer, author of Before I Let You Go

    One moment can change your life

    When Gracie Ashcroft wakes after a crash with severe amnesia, she must choose whether to live a life through other people’s memories or to start a new life all her own.

    Discovering her late mother left her an old flower farm, Gracie leaves her fiancé, best friend and the home full of forgotten memories behind, hoping to learn who she is now.

    Torn between wishing she could remember and afraid of losing what she now has, Gracie starts to wonder: if you had your time over, would you live the same life twice?

    The feel-good and sweeping love story that fans of Harriet Evans, Lucy Dillon and Ruth Hogan will love

      I loved this book!! The cover is beautiful, which caught my eye but the story and characters just drew me in. I knew I was going to love the book after the first chapter. I loved the writing style. I felt I was right there there with Gracie. All the talk about flowers and the descriptions were amazing. I made me wish for bouquets of peonies, tulips and sweet peas.Gracie wakes up in the hospital after a car accident and has no memory. She doesn't recognize anyone, and doesn't even know her own name or anything about herself. Even scarier, Gracie has a fiancé who is now a total stranger to her and they are to be wed in a few months. Gracie doesn't want to see anyone or hear anything about her past and only talks to her best friend Scarlett. Gracie ends up moving to her mom's old flower farm. Flowers are the only things bringing her happiness and she wants to find out who she truly is instead of the person she once was. At the farm, Gracie welcomes help from Tilly and Charlie. She also meets Flynn. Gracie feels conflicted because she doesn't want to cheat on Blake even though she has no memory of him.I never saw that coming when everything is finally revealed!!! It made me love the book even more. Definitely a surprise, one that was very well played. This book was a fun read. I definitely recommend it and can't wait to read more by the author!!!Thanks to NetGalley, Avon Books UK and the author, Vanessa Carnevale, for a free electronic ARC of this novel.
